Picture your life taken in photographs through instagram. You choose the angle, place, colors, positions, and filter to create an illusion of what you want your life to be, look, and feel like.

The more pictures you take with the same lens, angles, and positions the more real it becomes to you.

If you’re not happy with your current life conditions, start taking new pictures that show what kind of life you want even if you are not living it yet. The concept of “fake it till you make it” works just as long as you make it.

I don’t like using “fake” as a word used to describe someone who’s acting different than what everyone knows them as.

It could be a transition, becoming is a process, it’s not something you jump into instantly.

What happens when the illusion becomes a problem in your life and you realize that what you lived before was putting you on a path leading no where?

Creating an illusion to fit in and get a sense of belonging is a path you don’t want to be on.

Society and the people that surround you will continue to encourage it because they too are in the same illusion you are in.

Snapping out of an illusion when its not doing us any good can be our greatest challenge because we don’t realize its doing us any damage.

What kind if pictures are you taking?

Are you attracting the right crowd to like your pictures?

Are you getting any good responses to these pictures?

What’s important is finding the desire to change things that are holding you back.

If you are willing to snap out of it and create a new illusion to improve your life, share it with me!
